LADARVision®, incorporating state-of-the-art
technology, is distinctly different from other laser vision correction
systems available today. It uses the patented LADARTracker™ eye
tracking system. This active eye tracking technology helps your
doctor optimize the laser vision procedure for you. Find out how
LADARVision® takes the worry out of laser vision correction and
why it may be right for you.
Laser Radar Tracking (Ladar)
Vision is sometimes defined as the ability to
see beyond the obvious. From its inception, Alcon - Summit Autonomous,
the creator of the LADARVision® Excimer Laser System, has been dedicated
to a distinctly different technology, which combines active tracking
and small-beam corneal shaping - two features previously unavailable
in the United States. This system can be used by doctors to benefit
millions of people worldwide.
This critical area of eye tracking had its genesis in many years
of contracted research and development for the Strategic Defense
Initiative and the National Aeronautic and Space Administration
(NASA). More than $35 million above the original government research
has been invested to develop this technology and its application
to excimer laser vision correction.
LADARVision® represents a new way to approach laser vision correction
- with confidence. Confidence that LADARVision will enhance the
entire laser vision correction experience... before, during, and
after the procedure. Confidence that the LADARVision® eye tracking
system (LADARTracker™) and small-spot laser beam is designed to
achieve high quality visual outcomes and minimal post-surgical problems.
